'Fugitive Of The Week' Arrested in
Hopkinton

Concord,
NH - “Fugitive of the Week,” Sean Miller, 27, was arrested
during the early morning hours today, by a U.S. Marshals Task Force, at
a Park Avenue residence in Hopkinton.

Miller had been wanted on
an arrest warrant issued by the U.S. Marshals Service, for bail
violations on an original offense of heroin sales. Late Wednesday
evening into early the morning hours today, task force officers were
actively working tips on Miller; after Miller was featured as the
“Fugitive of the Week”. A series of tipsters eventually provided
information to officers that led to Miller’s location where he was
arrested without incident. Miller was housed at the Merrimack County
House of Corrections and will be arraigned today on the bail violations
at U.S. District Court in Concord.

This arrest was a cooperative
investigation by Antrim, Greenfield, Hillsboro and Hopkinton Police
Departments and the U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force.

Miller had
been featured as the
“Fugitive of the
Week” on January 13th, which was aired on WTPL-FM, WMUR-TV, The
Union Leader, The Nashua Telegraph, The Patch, Foster’s Daily Democrat,
Manchester Information, The Manchester Ink Link and prominently featured
on the internet. This program has been a remarkably successful tool that
has resulted in the location and arrest of numerous fugitives since its
implementation in 2007. This case received a lot of additional media
coverage throughout New England once the reward was announced.
